Abstract: Bypass turbofan engine comprising a thrust reverser (18). The latter includes deviation means (20) to deviate all or part of the primary flow of gases (32) so that the deviated main flow gases meeting the secondary flow reduce the rearward ejection speed of the latter and thus generate the thrust reverse effect. The secondary flow is exhausted to the rear of the nacelle. In the thrust reverse position, the deviation means are essentially radially inside the fairing (45) section of the primary nozzle at the level of the rear extremity (11) of the nacelle (10). Such a thrust reverser is particularly simple to design, is economical and avoids the presence of mobile parts on the external part of the nacelle, simplifying the design of the turbine engine.
